  • Cup sizes are not standard worldwide, so the same cup of an ingredient can weigh more or less depending on the country. What is a cup measurement

Feta is a briny, crumbly white cheese made from sheep's milk (or a blend of sheep and goat milk), with a sharp, salty flavour. One metric cup (250 ml) of crumbled feta weighs around 150 grams or 5.29 ounces. When a recipe calls for crumbled feta by volume, measuring by grams gives a more accurate result, as loosely crumbled and firmly packed feta fill a cup very differently.

Feta varies in moisture and how finely it crumbles, so volume measures are unreliable. Measuring by grams ensures consistent saltiness and texture in salads, pastries, and baked dishes.

Related Feta Ingredients

Goat's cheese is creamier and milder than feta, with less salt and no brine. Both are used crumbled over salads and pastries, but feta adds a sharper, briny punch while goat's cheese contributes a subtler, creamier tang. See what 1 cup of goat's cheese is in grams.

Ricotta is softer, wetter, and much milder than feta (258 g vs 150 g per cup). Ricotta works in baked fillings where a neutral, creamy base is needed; feta is the better choice when a salty, tangy kick is the point. See what 1 cup of ricotta is in grams.

Halloumi is firm and holds its shape under heat, while feta crumbles and does not grill well on its own. Both are salty and used in Mediterranean cooking, but halloumi is the pick when you need a cheese that can be fried or grilled. See what 1 cup of halloumi is in grams.

Domiati is the Egyptian brined white cheese, milder and heavier per cup than feta (240 g vs 150 g). Both crumble into salads and pastries; reach for domiati when you want a softer, less tangy cheese, and weigh rather than scoop since the densities differ. See what 1 cup of domiati is in grams.
